Over the last few years a number of language speakers, linguists
and language workers have identified the urgency of the issue of
supporting indigenous languages. In response a petition to the
Federal government has been put together by The Federation of
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Languages, the national
peak body for community based indigenous language programs in
Australia. Please follow the link below to either print out a
hard copy or sign this petition online in support of indigenous
languages.
